Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected over the y - axis, the rule is $(x,y)\to(-x,y)$.

Step2: Apply the rule

Given point $P(-1,5)$, when reflected over the y - axis, $x=- 1$ becomes $-(-1) = 1$ and $y = 5$ remains the same. So the new point $P'$ is $(1,5)$.

Answer:

$(1,5)$
